Migrating Extension Settings

In previous versions of my component I relied on using the advanced config section for handling my settings since I couldn't get my head around actually creating a preferences page at the time.

I now have one working great with cfg_string typed variales. 

Is there an easy way to convert the data stored in the old advconfig_string_factory typed variables that I was using to the new ones while symultaneously removing the old config options from the advanced prefs page?

Any help is most appreciated.
